Wade Miley came back from a blowout against his manager to blowout the Braves and end a seven game Red Sox losing streak. Miley went 6.1 innings to even his record at 6-6, while Brock Holt hit for the cycle to support an 18 hit attack in the 9-4 Boston victory over the Braves.
In the momentous slump breaking contest Wednesday afternoon, both Dustin Pedroia (knee) and Hanley Ramirez (back) sat out with some minor health issues. Pedroia’s replacement, Holt, walled a double off Braves starter Julio Teheran to start the game off.
